Answer:

charge density when the charge density is shoe out the volume of a body then the charge for unit volume is called volume charge density and it is represent by ρ. •: ρ = Vq

Answer:

Volume charge density: When the charge density is throughout the volume of a body, then the charge per unit volume is called volume charge density and it is represented by ρ.

∴ρ=


(v)/(p)

Hence the unit of ρ is Cm

−3

Example: If a charge q is uniformly distributed in the whole volume of a

sphere of radius R, then p =


(q)/( (4)/(3) ) \pi {r}^(3) =3q/4πR-3
